I wish I could go back in time and shake myself.
“Wake up!”
Wake up, to her freckles like starlight.
Wake up, to her smile like the rising sun.
Wake up, to her eyes like the blue sky.
Wake up, to her joy like the universe.
“Wake up!”
Wake up, to what is right in front of you.
Wake up, so beautifully alive and yours.
“Wake up!”
Wake up, before you break something that cannot be undone.
Now, when I wake up, I am alone.
